Politics, football and humour combine effortlessly in a lo-fi folk punk extravaganza that we at Prosity Records have long admired and find infinitely absorbing. This music should be textbook 101 for all alternative folk practitioners... Recorded live the night after the 2010 general election at Ye Olde Rose & Crown in Walthamstow, London on a device not much bigger than a packet of cigarettes, so more of an official bootleg than a live album (there are no overdubs whatsoever, this isn't...

We do love Robby Thinman and his various Snowmen, and this latest version is the smoothest we have heard Rob yet - some slick playing, those unmistakable lyrics, and the voice that launched a thousand crack troops against his poetic castle stronghold in England's north eastern heartland. These two tracks - '(The Face That Launched A Thousand) Shovels' and '(The) King Of Sweden' - are from their latest release Too Cool For The Room which can be found in full at their BandCamp site .

Steve Adams is an excellent musician and songwriter whose music is filled with a gentle melancholic poetry which reaches out through the skillful and ringing guitar work evident in his instrumentals. There are shades of Davy Graham and Ian Anderson, and echoes of the free spirit of the sixties counter-culture - but this is also a music which reaches back to Doc Watson and forward to the new age alternative ethos. This fine 4 song EP is music for the soul and is an excellent addition to the...

The first Prosity Records Folk Compilation proved to be something of a success, so here is volume 2 - bigger, longer, and every bit as good! Some familiar voices rub shoulders with a variety of new friends, and there is a wider variety of styles and sounds, from modern underground folk, through traditional European song, country, and accomplished instrumental composition. The one thing to take note of is, once again, there are no two styles the same - just folks expressing their art in their...
